Magazine Cover

moss

I created the music magazine Moss. The main story features Mick Jagger and his ability to defy the laws of physics and perform for eternity and beyond; even through a nuclear fallout. I put a nuclear wasteland in the background and cropped out an action shot of Mick Jagger. I utilized the 3D option for most of the text I used. The depth of text really draws your eyes in and demonstrates some level of importance. I also bent the “Jagger Still Performs” to make it look theatrical like a title of a movie. Everyone should check out Death Grips.

I took this photo outside my front door. I rarely use the panorama feature and I was surprised to see how authentic it looks. The picture looked better than I thought it ever has in person. The panorama is really effective at giving an accurate 180 degree perspective. photomergePhotoshop has useful tools to construct photos like this but the panorama function results in a cleaner product. This panorama shot is able to be viewed in 360 mode here http://www.2vr.in/V-H72   I should have taken more photos to make the photo more complete but it gives an accurate representation of what it is like to walk out my front door. I think 360 pictures and virtual reality is very cool and will soon change the way social media is viewed/posted. It also has many possible uses in education and law enforcement.

I took this picture on high street. I set an 8 second shutter which resulted in streaks of light. I edited the hue of the picture to make the lights have more of a pink color. I put a harsh contrast and darkened the brightness a bit so the lights would really stand out.

I took this picture of four bottles of ice tea. I changed the color of the tea to a magenta-like hue. I applied the iris blur filter which brings attention to the center of the piece. I like how the light reflected around between the bottles. It is difficult to immediately pick out what you are looking at because the perspective of this shot is strange.

This is a picture I took of thousands of Q-tip sticks without the cotton on them. The picture was originally quite organized and geometrical. R\The picture has been inverted and I used the twirl distortion filter. After that I sharpened the image and used the shake reduction option.
